Maybe it’s because they’ve been so lifeless in years past. But fans and experts alike are still raving about the moves the Cowboys front office has made this free agency period. And the Brandin Cooks trade is looking better all the time; we’ll break down why he’s the perfect WR2 in Dallas and examine how his addition (along with that of Stephon Gilmore) changes how the rest of the league sees the Cowboys’ chances in 2023.
Meanwhile, we’re taking a look at new video that shows the encouraging rehab progress of offensive lineman Terence Steele, we’re forecasting Dak Prescott’s next contract extension (haters should stop scrolling now; you won’t like the dollar amount at all), and we’re reminiscing with an insider’s perspective on what Ezekiel Elliott’s departure feels like.

That’s all up next in News and Notes.
